tigry1 [53]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

-1y = -4

Divide both sides by -1 to get y by itself.

-1/-1 = -4/-1

y = 4

It's positive because there are two negatives, which mean they cancel out.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Approach

First, list the given information, then form an equation based on the given information. Finally, solve the equation with simplification and inverse operations.

2.Given

A total of 234 tickets were given away

5 times as many tickets were given away to listeners compared to employees

-Call the number of tickets given away to employees (x)

3. Form an equation

(Tickets_given_to_employees) + (Tickets_given_to_listeners) = (Total_tickets)

Substitute,

x + 5x = 234

Simplify,

6x + 234

Inverse operations,

6x = 234

/6      /6

x = 39

write an equation of the line with the same slope as the line given by 5x+2y=8 and as the same y-intercept as 3x-7y=10
Paladinen [302]
The slope of the first equation would be -5/2 because
2y=-5x+8
y=-5x/2+4
The y intercept of the 2nd equation is when x=0, so -7y=10
y=-10/7
The equation of the line would be y=-5x/2-10/7
Or in standard form....
5x/2+y=-10/7
5x+27=-20/7
